I am not a Tequila guy. Not by a long shot.
After a youth filled with pounding Hornitos or Patron shots to Lil Jon's ubiquitous song of the same name, tequila makes me vomit in my mouth a little.
But some friends of mine begged me up and down to try some "good Anejos" before turning my back on the spirit forever. The name that came up the most? Tres Generaciones Anejo.
I am a full fledged whiskey nerd. I can't stop talking about whiskey and must have it at every social gathering. I LOVE the stuff. Compared to the woodsy and charred heat of whiskey, this tequila sips almost.... cool?
Reminds me of the earth. Very vegetal flavors and earthy tones. Do I detect some mint? Perhaps it just tastes so because I'm so used to whiskey. The flavor is so delicate and dare I say refreshing?
Okay... I'm not a convert. I'll stick with my single malts and bourbons. But the next time I am out with my friends... I don't think I would mind ordering a neat pour of this stuff. Pretty pleasant indeed!
